This 455 HO was a West Seneca car new!
Buffalo had quite a few rare Pontiacs

Yes, that’s Austin Pontiac , Orchard Park Road in West Seneca doesn’t exist anymore. Been in there many times back in the 70s and 80s buying parts.
never did any tracking or researching on the 75 and newer cars

Muscle cars really died out after that point, very neat to know though, one of the last true muscle cars
I wonder if there’s any pre-75 cars I’m missing. I know most of the heavy hitters, Judge Convertibles are really the cool ones. Ram Air IV cars and the super rare 70/71 cars. That $1,100,000 mecum sale really solidified those as million dollar muscle. Wonder if we ever had any of those besides the RA III and IV and Judge cars Bob in Rochester had. I know he had that amazing gold 1971, and a red one I’m not sure about, but that gold one was just incredible. Shame i never got to see it when he owned it here

There’s so much I have left to learn
The pepper green car? I think Bob B owned that car.
I think he had a black/black 4 speed RA III vert too. They made a hundred or so of those right? Chances it’s the same may be low, but very cool!
You’re the Pontiac guy!

Yes, the pepper green RAIV 70 judge Conv that Bob has I found and brought home to Western New York..
I went with Bob when he purchased a black on white 69 Gto raiv convertible.
He also had a 69 Gto ra 3 convertible, four speed that was green on green. That one has since been sold

My brother Bob and his 69 Judge RA 3 black on black four-speed white top. This is around 1981.

Was this a factory black/black with a white top? That’s an insanely rare combo! Judge registry doesn’t even have one haha. I don’t think they have nearly all of them registered just yet.
